NVIDIA ION
Microsoft has certified the new NVIDIA® ION™ platform for Vista. One of the most exciting aspects of this certification is: "Silky smooth 1080p high definition video including Blu-ray movies". The form factor, A/V outputs (HDMI & Digital Audio), and power consumption (18W) make this an excellent option for a Home Theater PC running Vista Media Center. Hook this up large external storage via eSata, USB, or a NAS via network and you have everything from music to pictures to movies easily accessible via Vista MCE. The only final piece missing here would be a slot for a CableCard and you could then throw away your cable/satellite box with its clunky, sluggish user interface. If you have ever considered setting up a home theater PC, I would highly suggest taking a look at Vista MCE. The interface is clean, intuitive and responsive. Paired with this box users will have a winning combination for their media needs. NVIDIA states the price will start at $299 for the PC.”

Apple iPod Shuffle 2G
Apple started shipping the second generation iPod Shuffles. I already had the first generation, and the only real difference is the size of the unit. Most the features are basically the same. I figured size and the aluminum enclosure was a good enough reason to get the new one. Besides it gives me an excuse to write another post for this site. The new iPod Shuffle comes in only one size, 1GB, which Apple says is about 240 songs. I was able to put 263 songs in my real world use. At $79, I found that the iPod Shuffle was very reasonable in price.

Apple iPod Nano (1GB)
This morning Apple quietly released a 1GB iPod Nano for $149, making their latest music player more accessible to the public price wise. Still capable of holding a good amount of songs (~240 songs) it has the same physical size as the other 2GB and 4GB iPod Nano models and is available in both black and white. Along with this release Apple has reduced the prices of the iPod Shuffles $30 dropping them to $69 and $99 for the 512MB and 1GB models, respectively.
Apple iPod Nano
I bought the iPod Nano the first day it was released to the Apple Store. To my surprise, on its initial launch they seemed to have a decent supply. I did not have to be put in a waiting list like some of the Apple products I had purchased in the past. I picked up the black 4GB model and even at the time of purchase seemed to be the most popular model of the four. After using it for a few months now, there are some things I really like about the product and other things that I don’t seem to care for too much.

Apple iPod Shuffle
The iPod Shuffle was purchased in January after it was released at Macworld. The nice thing about the unit is I can carry it everywhere I go. I have had other iPods in the past and they aren’t too big to carry around but it would never be an everyday item. With the shuffle I can always keep a small collection of music with me at all times. Like the other iPods, this unit grabs scratches as well. I don’t care too much about the scratches so I do not have a case for it. My Nano on the other hand, could have used a case.
